BARNES OUT
Conceding two tries with a man advantage ?

LOL enjoy being amongst all those happy Queenslanders.
The recipe to succeed in league is pretty simple isn’t it? You have four hard running props, your lock is a link these days and your second rowers are workaholics who can hit a hole. You have powerful wingers to return your kicks and you play it up the other end and be patient, with a fullback who backs up through the guts and a snappy hooker. That’s pretty much it.N

Gee NSW were poor though. I think all talk of Cleary dominating origin can be out to bed until he ceases to choose the same 5th tackle option 30 times a game.
Blues had everything go their way. They had a try allowed after a clear knock-on, had QLD down to 12 after the most ridiculous sin binning in history and still couldn’t get the job done.
This is the sort of supplementary chromosome thinking that comes from being a Queenslander, totally ignoring their having a half time lead gifted to them by essentially corrupt match officials who've been on a pro-red neck bender all year. Beyond parody. Genuinely the only time in my history of watching competitive sport that I've stopped watching a contest because it was blatantly obvious how the game was meant to go.QLD were up against it all game.
No one has ever really thought that tbh. But he's like Ricky Stuart - a protected species in the media. He's basically cost NSW five series in a row. He was terrific player but tbh he was over rated as well. Daley was a miles better 5/8th, lets be honest. And neither a patch on Kenny, though there's no shame in that I suppose.Does anyone actually think that Freddie is a good coach?
He’s always come across to me as another Alfie - great player, good guy but not a coach
What a joke of a response. Blatant knock-on to go ahead after half time. All the 50-50 calls going NSW’s way. A ridiculous sin binning. Surely, you’d have to be the most most gullible of conspiracy theorists to believe the game was adjudicated in the favour of QLD.This is the sort of supplementary chromosome thinking that comes from being a Queenslander, totally ignoring their having a half time lead gifted to them by essentially corrupt match officials who've been on a pro-red neck bender all year.

i definitely sit more with Burgey in how terrible the refs were, particularly towards nsw, however I do concede that nsw were garbageNah, those days went away with Gomersall
Refs & bunker were terrible all night
Rub of the green went to Qld in first half and to Blues in 2nd
It was dreadful but evened out & NSW definitely can’t blame the refs for their defeat
